Specialised Life Skills and Wellbeing Provision for Autistic and Neurodivergent Girls
At Ashley’s House, we currently offer a Weekend Social Club for neurodivergent girls aged 11+–16+, providing a safe, nurturing space to connect, make friends, and have fun. The weekend club focuses on social interaction, emotional wellbeing, and life skills through playful, meaningful experiences all within a calm, sensory-friendly environment.
Our Term-Time Life Skills Programme, launching in February 2026, will expand on this approach, offering a specialised life skills that supports confidence, independence, and emotional regulation. While we are not a school and do not deliver academic lessons, our sessions focus on practical learning cooking, communication, self-care, teamwork, and wellbeing designed to help each girl feel safe, understood, and capable.
At this stage, families self-fund their sessions, though we are working towards accepting EHCP-funded placements in the near future.
Ashleys House is a place of safety for girls to explore within an environment promoting the following:
- Unity
- Growth
- Celebrate milestones
- Creating strong community, social acceptance, network, environment, friendships
- Inspire parents to feel proud of their children
- For our children to have a future
